Sure Fit Slipcover Review {Video}

by Life Without Pink on May 24, 2012

Two and half years ago, we moved into our new home.

I absolutely love my home. We live on 3+ acres, have a wrap around porch, pool, and lots of room for two little boys to run around.

The only problem we faced was the previous owners loved flower wallpaper and lots of it!

We successfully stripped all the wallpaper off and painted, making it feel more like a home…..our home.

The last room we need to do is our sun room, probably one of my favorite spaces in the house.

I’m determined to turn it into my  ‘Mom cave’. The place I sit and relax with a cup of coffee or glass of wine, while watching the deer play in the backyard.

This room has so much potential.

A few years ago we were given a sofa, chair and loveseat. They are in great condition but the pattern is really busy and I admit ugly.

Also, the indoor/outdoor carpet in our sun room has tons of flowers {thanks to the previous owners}. I tell you I can’t get rid of the flowers fast enough!

Since the kids seem to love this room and have a blast jumping on the furniture, I decided to make it the last room that we would redo.

And now it’s time for a sun room make-over!

I really can’t afford at this time to buy new furniture, it’s just not in the budget.

So I’ve teamed up with Sure Fit to give my furniture a make-over!

Sure Fit Inc. is the nation’s most trusted provider of easily-installed furniture covers, slipcovers and decorative accessories. They provide an attractive and affordable solution for consumers who need to protect furniture from children, pets and general wear or want to quickly and cost-effectively upgrade their furniture and enhance the appearance of any room.

When you hear the word ‘slip cover’ most of us think our Grandma’s furniture. Not attractive, over-sized and always bunching up as soon as we sit down.

But here’s the thing.

Slip covers are a modern way to give your furniture a redesign without breaking the bank. They are removable fabric covers that can be slipped over a chair or couch to protect the upholstery wear and tear.

I created a video to show you just how easy it is put the slip covers on and what a difference they really do make to your furniture:

Don’t they look great?

Here are some before and after photos:

What I love about Sure Fit:

  • Very easy to put on. Seriously if I can put this on, so can everyone else! It took my husband and I about a half hour to put the covers on all three pieces of the furniture.
  • Super tight and snug. I’ve had the covers on for over a week. My boys jump on them every single day and I haven’t had to fix them once. Now that’s awesome!
  • Durable. With two boys that play very hard, the covers are holding up!
  • Comfortable. I have the stretch suede separate set, which is very soft and cozy.

The best part? Everyone thinks I bought new furniture!

Sure Fit also has home accessories, pet products, outdoor covers and more!

So now that the furniture has been updated the next step is to find pillows that will make a statement, paint and new carpet.

I’ll keep you updated on the progress of our sun room.

I want to know, do you have any “ugly” furniture in your home that needs some updating? Have you ever tried using slip covers?

What a great slip cover & video! I’ve never seen them in such a microsuede fabric before… and it definitely looks like it fits great. I know exactly what you about the other slip covers that can be very loose.

What a fun video, Tina! It looks fairly simple to get the slip covers on – which surprised me. And too cute that A & B “broke” in the new slipcovers. Do the slipcovers stay put pretty well after normal sitting (and playing from 5 & 3 year old boys)?

Yes they do! I haven’t had to adjust them once and my boys having been jumping on them every day. Love it! Now I can’t wait to get rid of that ugly carpet…more to come!

Camea cross your review and video while reasearching Sure Fit slipcovers. Question…what do the backs of the couches look like? The way my tv room is , the loveseat or couch – depending on how often i rearrange the furniture..has the back showing to the kitchen/breakfast room .. I need it too look normal in the back. Is it bunchy or nice and smooth?
